1.9 DG Petrol 1989 Autosleeper

Post by davesarge »

Hi,

My van seems to stay on choke for an awful long time, I have changed the pull down unit thinking it was failing but it does not appear to have done the trick. I ran the van at idle with the air intake trunking off, and applied pressure to the choke valve to see if there was reistance (As per Haynes), which I have to admit there did not appear to be, it was easy to close off. Fitted the spare pull down but it still seems to require 6+ miles or so to come off choke? 18-20 MPG with the high top conversion so its a little annoying, just wondered if anyone had any other ideas about what could be causing it? if it sounds about right then I'll simply put up with it.

Thanks for your time
